# Convert addresses

Within this document, we'll outline some examples on how to convert addresses between different formats and derivation paths.

### Convert Hex ↔ Bech32 address

As we've mentioned in the [wallet](../defi/wallet) section, Injective addresses are compatible with Ethereum addresses. You can convert between the two formats easily.

### Using TypeScript

You can easily convert between an Injective address and Ethereum address by using our utility functions in the `@injectivelabs/sdk-ts` package:

```typescript theme={null}
import {
  getEthereumAddress,
  getInjectiveAddress,
} from "@injectivelabs/sdk-ts/utils";

const injectiveAddress = "inj1...";
const ethereumAddress = "0x..";

console.log(
  "Injective address from Ethereum address => ",
  getInjectiveAddress(ethereumAddress)
);
console.log(
  "Ethereum address from Injective address => ",
  getEthereumAddress(injectiveAddress)
);
```

### **Convert Cosmos address to Injective Address**

As Injective has a different derivation path than the default Cosmos one, you need the `publicKey` of the account to convert a Cosmos `publicAddress` to Injective one.

### Using TypeScript

```typescript theme={null}
import { config } from "dotenv";
import { PublicKey } from "@injectivelabs/sdk-ts/core/accounts";
import { ChainRestAuthApi } from "@injectivelabs/sdk-ts/client/chain";

config();

(async () => {
  const chainApi = new ChainRestAuthApi(
    "https://rest.cosmos.directory/cosmoshub"
  );

  const cosmosAddress = "cosmos1..";
  const account = await chainApi.fetchCosmosAccount(cosmosAddress);

  if (!account.pub_key?.key) {
    console.log("No public key found");
    return;
  }

  console.log(
    "injectiveAddress",
    PublicKey.fromBase64(account.pub_key.key || "")
      .toAddress()
      .toBech32()
  );
})();
```
